Specialisms

Marketing, PR, digital and agency recruitment. That's the patch.

Job titles change constantly. The underlying question doesn't: what does this person actually need to be good at?

Marketing & Leadership

Marketing people from hands-on specialists through to the people leading the whole function.

Brand, product, growth, generalist marketing and senior leadership, including Heads of Marketing, Marketing Directors and CMOs.

The job title isn't the specialism

Same title. Completely different job.

A Marketing Director in a founder-led business can have a completely different brief from a Marketing Director inside a £500m organisation.

An Account Director in a PR agency isn't doing the same job as an Account Director in a performance agency.

And a Head of Digital might own everything from acquisition and CRM to eCommerce, or barely touch half of it.

That's why I don't recruit from job titles alone.

The useful question is:

What does this person actually need to own, change or improve?

For clients

Trying to work out who you actually need?

Send me the brief, even if it's rough.

I'll tell you whether the role sits in my patch, whether the level and salary stack up and which hiring route makes sense.

For candidates

Not sure which box you fit into?

Good. Most good careers don't fit neatly into one.

Send me your LinkedIn profile or have a look at the roles I'm working on.

I recruit across these markets through Permanent Recruitment, Retained Search and Fractional Leadership. And sometimes the first step is Market Intelligence & Advisory before anybody recruits at all.

Can't see your exact job title?

That's probably because there are about 400 different ways to name marketing jobs these days 😂
